If you haven't already learned by now that a fool and his money soon part ways you wont ever learn.

So what is the difference in releasing a product as a paid beta or a year after "final" release going back to alpha because you probably didnt test it enough to begin with. Not sure what is so flawed in them releasing the P-51 like this??

No one is forcing anyone to buy P-51 at this point, I didnt pre-purchase A-10 when it was in this state, I waited for release.

That's what I am saying. If you want to buy another beta go for it. More power to you. Did you not learn anything about this experience already??

Apples to Oranges...

P-51 hasnt been out for a year and just now its going to beta... so when a girl cheated on you, you swore off all other girls?

There are lots of things, which need to be changed in DCS, but it is not that bad. At least not when compared to old IL2.

Some mountains are 100-200m too high in IL2 picture.

Nice comparison! But I was thinking more along the lines of the later Slovakia and similar maps in IL2 1946 than a direct comparison of the actual area modelled in the original IL2.

Great shots though!

I never played it the old sim. Wish I had. How about Cliff of Dover? How does the landscape look against the new IL-2?

COD still wins hand down, but we will have to wait until for the finished update.
